jmeisner 0 Posted July 28, 2006 Share Posted July 28, 2006 CardPlayer says it starts at noon. Not that this means much, considering the usual accuracy of their reporting...CardPlayer Live Update:The Rio has been invaded by radioactively mutated guinea pigs and is currently on fire. Numerous players have been kidnapped by the hostiles as a bargaining chip for their imprisoned comrades. Mikey the chimp is our current chip leader. Link to post Share on other sites
Oneeydjaq 0 Posted July 28, 2006 Share Posted July 28, 2006 Pretty lame if it has started, they had 2700 player tournaments with coverage minutes into the event, my guess is its a media circus. Link to post Share on other sites

SuitedAces21 2,722 Posted July 28, 2006 Share Posted July 28, 2006 it doesnt matter when it starts. for the end is here. Link to post Share on other sites
TheBigB11 0 Posted July 28, 2006 Share Posted July 28, 2006 Let me be the 1st with an update. Some guy nobody has heard of is up to $11,225, some people have not shown up, the girl who wins it might not be there yet, but she might be the chip leader. I think someone might have busted by now. Does it really matter what happens today, let alone what happens in the next week. They might not even be in the money by this time next week. Link to post Share on other sites
Dubey 1,035 Posted July 28, 2006 Share Posted July 28, 2006 Players to Use All-In ButtonPlayers each have an all-in button to use for their all-ins rather than having to push all $10,000 of their chips into the middle. This is the first time the World Series of Poker has implemented such a device to improve efficiencythat sucks... tossing a little white chip into the middle doesn't really have the same effect as a big two handed shove...

FourFlusher 0 Posted July 28, 2006 Share Posted July 28, 2006 They used the button in that stupid speed poker show. One thing it does do is avoid the confusion. There have been problems with the all in, because some didn't push, just announce, others didn't hear it, yada yada. It's a definitive move the entire table should see.I suppose you could still push for drama if you want. Link to post Share on other sites
SuitedAces21 2,722 Posted July 28, 2006 Share Posted July 28, 2006 "You've Outlasted One Player"A tournament director just announced over the P.A. system, "Congratulations players, you've just outlasted one player!" marking under 7 minutes before the first bustout of the tournament. 7 minutes. thats awesome poker.

tallytownFSU 0 Posted July 28, 2006 Share Posted July 28, 2006 My buddy Paul Snyder is there and he just called me about the busto. He said it was some guy that went all in every hand and like 4 hands into it, a guy calls him with AKs. Sum Dum Gai flips pocket 4's. The flop is something along the lines of 4,(broadway card),x. And the caller ran to the straight. Link to post Share on other sites
Oneeydjaq 0 Posted July 28, 2006 Share Posted July 28, 2006 All-In Called with 8-HighOn a flop of 1075, Tim Rod bets $300 and his opponent raises to $600. Rod calls and the turn puts the 3 on the board. Rod again bets out with $1,500 and is again raised by his opponent to $4,000. Rod calls and the river puts the 3 on the board. Rod pushes all-in and his opponent immediately calls. Rod flips up KQ for a turned flush. His opponent says, "Do I have a straight flush? Oh, no I don't" as he shows 86 for 8-high.
